FALSE FLAG OPERATION (1898): Two days after receiving word that the Kingdom of Spain had accepted the United states’ ultimatum, Republican (proto-fascist/socialist) de facto President McKinley (a resident of the federal enclave of Ohio) rejects the offer of peace, and instead asks the Republican 55th Constitutional Congress (elected in accordance with Article I, Section 3 [Clause 1] for a declaration of war: “[T]he destruction of the Maine, by whatever exterior cause, is a patent and impressive proof of a state of things in Cuba that is intolerable.”
NOTES:
- A false flag operation is a clandestine action usually carried out by a group with an agenda, done in such a way to mislead a population into believing it is being done by someone else.
- In the opinion of history, and of the editors and writers, we are forced to agree on prima facie evidence alone that this is a False Flag incident at least in the military way.
Question: Was this to aid the Cubans in their quest for independence, or to thwart their bid for independence?
